Teaching Method and Techniques:
As a friendly and patient tutor, I tailor my approach to each student’s unique needs, focusing on building a strong foundation in English skills. I emphasize active learning through discussions, practice exercises, and critical thinking. My goal is to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing their ideas.
Typical Lesson Plan:
A typical lesson starts with a quick review of previous material to reinforce learning. We then dive into new topics, using a mix of reading, writing, and analysis exercises. For SAT and SHSAT prep, I incorporate timed practice questions to build test-taking strategies. Each lesson ends with a recap and a brief assignment to solidify the day’s learning.
What Sets Me Apart as a Tutor:
As a high school senior who recently went through these exams and courses, I understand the challenges students face. My relatability, combined with my deep passion for English, allows me to connect with students on a personal level, making learning both effective and enjoyable.
Who the Lessons Are For:
I offer tutoring for middle and high school students, including those preparing for the SAT and SHSAT. Whether you need help with general English skills or specific test prep, I’m here to help you succeed.

I am a high school senior, and Gertie recently helped me brainstorm, draft, and edit an English essay. What stands out to me about Gertie is she didn’t simply give me an idea for an essay, but instead taught me effect brainstorming and drafting strategies that will enable me to independently write stronger essays in the future. Not to mention that I was worried going into this tutoring session with someone mine own age, but Gerties easygoing nature made me instantly feel comfortable while she simultaneously held a professional environment. Thank you Gertie, I look forward to working with you in the future!
Gertie has been my friend and classmate for years now, and is one of the most intelligent people I know. She has always shown a fierce dedication to learning, and I have no doubt she will be equally as dedicated to teaching others. She is also a great communicator and listener, so she’ll be able to meet you where you’re at! :D
